Made it out to Minor Clark Fish Hatchery on Tuesday. I found not a single
shore bird, not even a Killdeer. I did however, get a first for me, a
Lawrence's Warbler, one of the hybrids of the Blue-winged and Golden-winged
Warblers. I unfortunately was not able to get a photo. I did not see this on
the ebird list, so entered it as a Blue-winged. Anybody know if that is the
correct way to enter it? Is a hybrid countable on your life list?

Blue-winged Warbler 2 One was a typical Blue-winged. The second bird was a
Lawrence's Warbler. It had a black mask and throat, all yellow underneath, two
wing bars that appeared yellowish. Did no get a look at the undertail coverts
or the top of the head or back. The two birds were feeding in close proximity.
Unfortunately was not able to get a photo.
